Isn't Slaking basically a Psuedo, well at least in doubles. Is it because of Truant?

Pokemon W and Pokemon Z perhaps?

All this talk of Slaking reminded me of one thing:

- Ability Changer. If this works for Slaking as well, we've got ourselves a new uber .

How does this ability changer work?

I assumed it just let you change the ability of the pokemon to another that the pokemon can learn.  Not just any ability, only the ones it can normally get.

Like you can't teach Slaking anything cause he only has one ability.

But you could change Abomsnow to either Snow Warning or Soundproof, nothing else.

and so on.

I just thought htis ability changer would be a great thing to have if you wnated to change your pokemon ability withouth resorting to finding a new one or breeding or whatever.  Like say you find a shiny pokemon, but it has a shitty ability on it.  This thing lets you fix that.   Now if they just let you somehow change a pokemon's nature as well then its all good and you can LEGIT get a shiny of the kind you want and it won't look sketchy seeing a shiny pokemon with not only the right ability but the perfect nature to go with it.

No, only 3rd gen he was good. You cant swap that ability (i think).

The top 5 pokemon in terms of BST not counting legendary is 

1.Slaking (670)

2.Puesdo Legendary (600)  7 pokemon

3.Archeops (568) or somwhere close but its ability messes it up.

4. Arcanine (555)

5. Volcarona (545 or 550)

it doesn't work on slaking due to one ability. all i know is it 100% works as it'll switch two pokemon abilities not including DW ability!

Buttttttt..... It might do DW, thats wat we all hope!

What do you mean it will switch two pokemons abilities.

Like could I give Charizard the ability Drizzle and Politoed the ability Draught?

No i meant if a pokemon already has two abilities not counting the third (dreamworld) my bad for messing up my words

So basically all it does is let us normal people the ablity we want and can now have the ablity we want like the hackers but legitimately?

That's what I assumed.  I ddin't think it would let us put any ability on any pokemon.  That would be stupid and break the game.  

Such as the hax spiritomb with the one ability.  

now just to let us change the nature of pokemon through some sort of mini game or something.

So far it is a rumour, it was only based on a single pic that a leaker posted over at GAF and we've heard nothing more about it since then. Might have even been a fake. 

Still, if it does exist, your version of it is probably the most likely one, seeing that it would probably allow us to change between normal and DW ability (since there's no longer DW for X/Y). 

Nature changer would be boss, that would make breeding also much more manageable, as you'd only have to count in IVs for parameters.
